Article Synopsis
- Spontaneous bleeds are a major cause of mortality in children with Alagille syndrome (ALGS), particularly affecting girls more than boys, as shown by a systematic review of vascular events.
- Research using Jag1 mouse models revealed they experienced vascular abnormalities, including brain bleeds and blood vessel issues, which could exacerbate with high blood pressure.
- Retinography was found to be an effective non-invasive tool for examining vascular characteristics in ALGS patients, highlighting significant sex differences in vascular conditions in this disorder.
Organ function depends on tissues adopting the correct architecture. However, insights into organ architecture are currently hampered by an absence of standardized quantitative 3D analysis. We aimed to develop a robust technology to visualize, digitalize, and segment the architecture of two tubular systems in 3D: oble resin asting micro computed omography (DUCT).

Purpose: To evaluate physiological stability during SSC and incubator care in a group of preterm infants born at a gestational age (GA) of 32 weeks or less and receiving respiratory support.
Methods: Descriptive, observational study including 10 preterm infants (GA 22-32 weeks, postnatal age 2-48 days) were evaluated during SSC compared with flanking time periods in the incubator.
